Fluorescent manganese glass. The pb fluorescence is an icy blue color and emanates from within the body of the glass mn manganese a moderately strong lemonade like greenish yellow often somewhat turbid. When used together with cadmium sulfide it yields a brilliant red color known as selenium ruby. The orange red emission of divalent manganese sensitized by trivalent cerium ions in a phosphate glassy matrix has been investigated. White at normal light red strong peak 635 nm under uv excitation please do not use common uv leds they continue reading manganese 2 doped fluorescent glass bead new.
Metals used to impart color to glass. The oxide composition of the glass samples is calculated to obtain a vitreous network composed of metaphosphate chains bonded by modifier ions li ba 2 and la 3 and fluorescent ions. Ruby gold and cranberry glass are red. Reddish orange manganese glass is sometimes called persimmon glass manganese dioxide mno2 was also used to decolorize glass containing iron impurities or to stabilize the color of glass so it wouldn t shift over time.
Selenium like manganese can be used in small concentrations to decolorize glass or in higher concentrations to impart a reddish color caused by selenium nanoparticles dispersed in glass.
